Allen Park — Lions cornerback Alex Carter spent last year thinking of the possibilities.

“I watched the defense, and I was in the meetings,” he said of his rookie season. “And I kind of know where I fit in, so I just want to fit in and make sure that our defense is strong, our team is strong and that we can win some games.”

After spending his entire rookie season on injured reserve, Carter isn’t ready to make any proclamations, but he believes he’ll be able to help whenever he gets the opportunity.

“Health-wise I feel great,” said Carter, who suffered a lingering ankle injury before camp last year.
